Cinnamon weather

I have installed cinnamon, add applet cinnamon weather with installation but no applet is on my screen.

Would you mind telling us at least some badic information like what version of openSUSE, which desktop?
And how did you install Cinamon? From a repo, from an RPM, from a tarball?

I have openSUSE 12.2, environment gnome, kde and cinnamon. I have installed cinnamon from repo. Thanks

Thanks. I can not find it in the standard repos (but I am on 11.4, thus it may be in OSS or nonOSS in 12.2).

And I do not know the product. But I guess that an applet is only created when the product is started. When I would install a GUI product, I would search in the main menu for an entry for it. Didn’t you do that, or do I misunderstand you?

I did my best but without success. I dont know, where I made a mistake. I have applet weather in applets but no more.

Sorry, but this is not ver understandable. Nor is it a very exact description on what you did and what you see.
Rememeber that we can not look over your shoulder. We depend on your descriptions and eventual screen shots.

# zypper lr -u | grep -i cinnamon
5 | openSUSE:Cinnamon    | openSUSE:Cinnamon  | Yes  | No  | [noparse]http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/Cinnamon:/GNOME34/12.2/[/noparse]](http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/Cinnamon:/GNOME34/12.2/)

The latest version is 1.6.3 and was updated yesterday.
I will check if the weather applet works here.

All right …

  • open a terninal (as user, not root) and run these commands:
$ cd /tmp
$ wget [noparse] http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/uploads/applets/RM1X-RW7Z-3XN8.zip[/noparse]](http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/uploads/applets/RM1X-RW7Z-3XN8.zip)
$ unzip RM1X-RW7Z-3XN8.zip
$ cd cinnamon-weather-1.7.0
$ ./install.sh

  • Restart Cinnamon with ALTt+F2, r
  • Right click on the panel, select “Add applets to the panel” and check “Weather”
  • See this page on how to set your location: Spices : Cinnamon
    The default location is Innsbruck, Austria, and the weather is partly cloudy there.

Nice applet. :slight_smile:

Thank you very much. My mistake, before I work as root.

Henk, Cinnamon is the fork that makes GNOME3 look like, and function like GNOME2

I just brewed tea with cinnamon. Tastes fine.
Did that as kitchen boy, not as root.

That is allright. Enjoy it.

Only thing is: only do things as root as your are convinced that you have to. And when you do, try to undertstand as good as possible what you do as root to your system. But on the other hand, do not get paranoid because that is bad for your well earned sleep at night.
